 THE BASICS OF SAFETY STANDARDS, SIL AND PL LEVELS, SISTEMA

Functional Safety: this logo identifies all

BEI Sensors products with functional safety
certification.

Any automated system potentially poses a risk to people, property anticipated during the system design phase and are dealt with
or the environment. For this reason a number of safety measures before they occur.
have been taken. Safety standards have been created with one
thing in mind: limiting risk. These standards have evolved to increase the safety level and have
been applicable since 2012.
With these standards as a framework, functional safety can,
after a risk analysis, provide appropriate protection. Hazards are

Standards
IEC/EN 61508 (2010)
This standard, specific to control systems, incorporates safety
regulations, technical specifications and the training of person-
nel, taking into account the life cycle applied to safety.
It has replaced standard EN 954 since November 2009.
IEC/EN 62061 (2013)
This standard derived from standard EN 61508 is applied to
machinery.
It defines requirements and gives recommendations for the
design, integration and validation of safety-related electrical,
electronic and electronically programmable control systems for
machinery.
EN ISO 13849-1 (2009)
This standard covers the electrical safety of control systems
(hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical).
Standard EN 62061 supplements standard EN ISO 13849-1.
SISTEMA
SISTEMA is free software, available on the Internet. It is a vital tool
for users, which provides full support in evaluating safety devices
on machines in the context of standard EN ISO 13849-1.
This tool is based on two key features:
1. It provides assistance in defining the Performance Level (PL)
required for a safety installation.
2. It can be used to model the structure of the safety system
down to the component level, in accordance with standard EN
ISO 13849-1. SISTEMA therefore makes calculations to check
that the required PL and obtained PL match, depending on the
safety data of the components used in the system. Libraries of
components with safety data are made available on manufac-
turer sites.
The safety values for BEI Sensors encoders make it much easier
to integrate them in a high-performance safety system (up to PLe
category 4).

SIL/PL levels The library of BEI Sensors safety encoders and

standard encoders, as well as the SISTEMA software
The concepts of Safety Integrity Level (SIL) and Performance Level are available for download from beisensors.com
(PL) come from the above standards. They describe the capacity
of the control system, in terms of safety, to reduce the risk factor.

 THE NEW RANGE OF INCREMENTAL ENCODERS: UP TO SIL3/PLE CAT. 4

In response to customer demand for functional safety, BEI Sensors,
a leading manufacturer of encoders and position sensors, has de-
veloped a range of functional safety encoders to suit a wide variety
of industrial applications.
This new range of encoders can be used in safety applications in-
volving speed control with or without rotation detection as well as
position counting applications.
The associated drive safety functions are: SLS, SSM, SLA, SAR,
SDI, SS1/SS2, SOS, SLP, SEL, SLI, SCA.
